Council of Neighbors and Organizations (CONO) partners with the Cultural Office of the Pikes Peak Region (COPPeR) to organize a program for neighbors to submit ideas for art projects in their neighborhood. The project will be awarded in September during National Neighbors Day on Sept. 28 and must be completed in October as a part of Arts Month.

Neighborhoods will submit their idea via application with details on their proposed project. The project should be art focused and should be an opportunity inclusive of all interested neighbors to help build community. The project budget needs as well as participant capacity, must be included in the application. The award for the project will be a stipend to help the neighborhood with the supplies, permits, etc. to complete the project.

Examples of similar neighborhood art projects: Organization of Westside Neighbors Basketball Court Painting, Ivywild Improvement Society Mural, City of Colorado Springs Storm Drain Projects, Community Quilts, and More!

Mike Phirman is one of those performers who, when asked if they’re going to be performing at the Tri-Lakes Center for the Arts in September, would say “Yes”. That’s because he’s (1) a performer, (2) coming to the Tri-Lakes Center for the Arts in April, and (3) honest.

Mike has been making family-friendly comedy songs for nearly a decade. His music can be heard in regular rotation on SiriusXM’s Kids Place Live as well as kids radio shows across the country. Mike’s live show brings comedy, music, interactive videos, and what some people very-generously call “dancing”. Some songs are sing-alongs, some songs are follow-alongs, and best of all, no songs are way-too-longs.

With humor that aims to entertain parents as much as the kids, Mike’s show promises to be a unique and fun experience for everyone.

Local historian Alicia Petri will lead a walking tour of downtown Victor, highlighting some of the stranger, little known history of the town – from the Labor wars to gunfights and shootouts and more.

Be sure to dress appropriately for mountain weather (which can include wind, cold temperatures, snow, and rain), wear good hiking shoes or boots, and bring water and sunscreen.
